Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Astro serves pre-rendered HTML from edge CDNs with zero JavaScript by default. Real migrations show mobile load times dropping from 5.2 to 1.8 seconds. WordPress sites average 3-5+ seconds without heavy optimization work — and even then, consistently hitting 95-100 Lighthouse scores is genuinely rare.
Absolutely. We integrate headless CMS platforms like Sanity, Tina, or Decap, which give editors a full visual interface — rich text, image uploads, draft previews — without touching code. For content-focused workflows, it's comparable to WordPress's block editor, honestly sometimes better.
A typical migration runs $6,000-$14,000 for sites under 200 pages, covering content export, design rebuild, CMS integration, and redirect mapping. Most clients recover that within 12-18 months through eliminated hosting costs ($120-$6,000/year), zero plugin licenses, and near-zero ongoing maintenance.
Not if the migration is done properly. We map every existing URL with 301 redirects, preserve metadata, and validate structured data. Most clients see rankings improve within 4-8 weeks — Astro's faster load times and stronger Core Web Vitals scores directly influence Google's page experience signals.
WordPress still makes sense in specific situations — WooCommerce stores with 10,000+ SKUs, membership portals with payment processing, or sites where non-technical teams publish multiple times daily and need real-time previews. For content sites, blogs, and marketing pages, though, Astro wins on every metric that actually matters.
We used it ourselves. Our WordPress site scored 62 on Lighthouse, needed monthly plugin updates, and cost $80/month to host. After rebuilding in Astro, it scores 98+, hosts for under $20/month, deploys in 30 seconds via Git push, and requires zero security maintenance. The migration paid for itself in four months.
